Protected Model makes it possible to obfuscate the generated code.

Details of the Protected Model can be found in the following documentation:

https://www.mathworks.com/help/rtw/ug/create-a-protected-model-using-the-model-block-context-menu.html#mw_614dac2e-dadb-47ee-8f8a-aff710f0431e

When creating a Protected Model, you can select one of the following three Content types for the generated code.

(1) Binaries

(2) Obfuscated source code

(3) Readable source code

 

(1) is .lib and can be selected if you do not want your distribution partners to decipher the generated code.

(2) and (3) are C code, although there is a difference in readability.

The obfuscated source code in (2) is the generated code with all of the variable and function names converted to meaningless character strings, except for the names of interfaces to other sets of code, which cannot be changed. 

Please refer to the following documentation for details on settings:
